You know when it is a trend when Barbie gets involved and funky coloured, dip-dyed, and ombre hair styles aren’t going anywhere. From popstars Katy Perry and Ellie Goulding to actress Kate Bosworth, and even model Amber Le Bon, colourful hair has seem to be the ‘Rachel’ hairstyle of the year *sorry I have been watching re-runs of Friends*. It was even spotted on the spring/summer 2012 runways with Mulberry adding coloured streaks to their models hair and Roksanda Ilincic just went for full on bright.
Well Barbie with the help of uber-trendy Dalston salon, Bleach London, is showing how the trend should be done with some amazing creations, which have been inspired by and featuring the latest Barbie Design Printables – that have gone right to the top of my Christmas wish list.
“Barbie was my very first hair idol when I was a kid, and now having the opportunity for her to be our client at Bleach is incredible, and her design able hair is a genius concept which has also inspired some new creations inside the salon!” said Bleach co-founder, Alex Brownsell.
Alex has created 8 Barbie looks, each one is as divine as the next, from a bow in her hair to the sexiest bunches I have ever seen, and one fierce plait, this doll really knows how to work colour!! Now what do I have to do to get these beauties in my collection???? 
So onto the new doll set that I need in my life – first up it is only £17.99 from Amazon, and the online program allows you to print directly on to the clip-on hair extensions. The best bit is you get 16 for yourself and 6 for your Barbie doll, which means you can do a coordinated look with any colour or design you like – a completely personalised Barbie look. I am just hoping it is as easy as it sounds. Get in quick though I think this is going to be one hot doll this Christmas.
Like what you have seen? Well keep checking the official Bleach x Barbie Tumblr for more amazing Barbie looks. Also keep your fingers cross the salon to puts Barbie-makeovers on their price list as my dolls would love a new hair-do!!!
